  2. Rate of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_convergence

    The definitions of Q-convergence rates have the shortcoming that they do not naturally capture the convergence behavior of sequences that do converge, but do not converge with an asymptotically constant rate with every step, so that the Q-convergence limit does not exist. One class of examples is the staggered geometric progressions that get ...

  3. Pauling's rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauling's_rules

    The radius ratio rules are a first approximation which have some success in predicting coordination numbers, but many exceptions do exist. [3] In a set of over 5000 oxides, only 66% of coordination environments agree with Pauling's first rule. Oxides formed with alkali or alkali-earth metal cations that contain multiple cation coordinations are ...

  4. Detection limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detection_limit

    In analytical chemistry, the detection limit, lower limit of detection, also termed LOD for limit of detection or analytical sensitivity (not to be confused with statistical sensitivity), is the lowest quantity of a substance that can be distinguished from the absence of that substance (a blank value) with a stated confidence level (generally 99%).

  5. Classical limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_limit

    The classical limit or correspondence limit is the ability of a physical theory to approximate or "recover" classical mechanics when considered over special values of its parameters. [1] The classical limit is used with physical theories that predict non-classical behavior.

  6. Rate equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_equation

    The rate is first-order in one reactant (ethyl acetate), and also first-order in imidazole, which as a catalyst does not appear in the overall chemical equation. Another well-known class of second-order reactions are the S N 2 (bimolecular nucleophilic substitution) reactions, such as the reaction of n-butyl bromide with sodium iodide in acetone:

  7. Diffusion-limited enzyme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion-limited_enzyme

    The fastest enzymes in the dark box on the right (>10 8 s −1 M −1) are constrained by the diffusion limit. (Data adapted from reference [ 1 ] ) A diffusion-limited enzyme catalyses a reaction so efficiently that the rate limiting step is that of substrate diffusion into the active site , or product diffusion out. [ 2 ]

  8. Market order vs. limit order: How they differ and which type ...

    A limit order will not shift the market the way a market order might. The downsides to limit orders can be relatively modest: You may have to wait and wait for your price.

  9. Entropy (order and disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(order_and_disorder)

    However, there is a broad class [18] of systems that manifest entropy-driven order, in which phases with organization or structural regularity, e.g. crystals, have higher entropy than structurally disordered (e.g. fluid) phases under the same thermodynamic conditions. In these systems phases that would be labeled as disordered by virtue of ...
